    The Troubling Issue of Magazines

    This is what im talking about! A few months ago you wanted fewer bullets... Now that you cant find a bullet for your gun you want it changed. The problem before was that people server hopped to gear up thats why bullets were rampant. You have to take into account the amount of guns and different kind of bullets in game, the only solution to this is have some guns spawn with a magazine or two, with half empty mags or some loose rounds.
  3. On the old mod, two guys camped stary and waited for me to leave, i had two briefcases on me so i couldnt risk it. I was at stary until the server restarted(1 hour of taunting and them calling me a pussy), next day, i logged on with a different name, spent a week of ass kissing them on the side chat. Finally, they offered to "team up". After a couple of missions, they took me to their base, and they bragged about their briefcases. And after a little "i dont believe you's" they opened up their safe then i sprayed them with an mk mod. Took 30 briefs, stole a chopper, destroyed the plot pole and satcheled the cars. Lesson of the story? Even the friendliest guys has a motive...
  4. The ability to fire a 50 cal shouldered in a standing position is a skill by itself, much less in quick succession and hitting a target. Something i hope to see in standalone is gun familiarity. A survivor who has survived for x numbers of days using a specified gun gets less sway for that gun(by gun i mean all attachments included, so if a survivor was using a magpul m4, he will lose said perk when he picks up a stock m4) not so much of a perk as to give a huge advantage from someone just off the coast, but enough of an incentive to stay alive and stick to one gun. I hate seeing m4 guys running around with mosins on their backs

    Is there an ACTUAL friendly server? Or does anyone...

    I think the OP wants ladderZ, or may be a fishing game? Hunting game? Or a campfire game where everyone gather around to sing cumbaya
  6. Great server, specially the ai, good job guys, been playing pn this server for more than a week. If you ever wanted to play on a server where you can have an opinion on how the server develops, i suggest you plot your pole here.
  7. Lol an answer to all the questions. Private hives. Lol you dont want helis? Find a server that offers non, you want apaches? Find a server that offers one. Arguing about what should be in game and not is useless. Dayz was popular and successful because it was the first of its kind, its longevity is due to the fact that you can look for the version you want. Choppers werent overpowered, just avoid them...hide and Dont move when you hear them then dont shoot at them... As for finding camps, sh*t happens. One of my fave encounters was, i was riding in a vehicle, heard a chopper, i stopped by the road the road then switched the engine off, little bird then lands next to my vehicle.... One guy jumps out to take my truck, i jumped out, run around amd shot him as he entered the tRuck, then shot the pilot as he tries to take off.... It was and still is one of my best dayz experience... Worst luck that turned out to be the best day... Then again.... Ive been sniped out of my helis as i try to power up lol
  8. Lol damn! So thats an internet ass whooping.... Kudos rassad, well played sir, well played indeed...

    Parachuting...

    I would rather not have an eject body option, if you get in a heli and dont have a chute, youre going down with the ship... It will make for more interesting gameplay, atleast not while in the air, like kill the pilot while the heli is on the ground then eject body option should be accessible from outside the choppah. Credit should be given to a shooter good enough to kill the pilot from an airborne heli... You make that shot, you kill everyone on board. It should be balanced though, helis and stuff, its not the best feeling in the world riding a bike on a dirt road then having a blackhawk come down and shoot you with a mini gun....

    Parachuting...

    Parachutes has always been part of dayz... So no, you cant tell old mod players to go play bf4... Try the mod first, then come back and tell me you dont want prachutes, having the ability to drop right in the middle of a gunfight... Or having the chopper do a fake land, behind some trees then while your enemies try to surround that lz, you parachute behind them? Parachutes make for so e great tactics... Just make it so that the pilot himself cant use a chute... Make it so that you have to actually find a chute to use one...
  11. Well, i ran into a guy in a building, we both had m4's, i had a 60 rnd mag while he had a 30 rnd, he died. Now imagine if he had unlimited ammo? So yes, it is game breaking, as well as wall glitching, and wall hacking. And it wasnt an extended firefight either. Atm, standalone is just eye candy, it looks better than the mod, but its still hollow. standalone doesnt have exploding cows yet coz there arent any cows, or cars to make rainbows. ive worked in the telecoms industries, what i learned is always make a solid foundation for a program, add in the eye candies later. Wall glitching, editing pbo files and hacking should be top priority. These are your fundamentals, there is no such thing as a hack proof program, focus on your fundamentals so you can easily patch it later.

    FPS @ 137 in Elecktro?

    17 is his fps from razer game booster... The 137 is from another program, i think, it is from overwolf's fps counter... I get about 45 in elektro on razers counter while at the same moment overwolf is showing me 150+... Overwolf cant measure the fps on this game accurately, though i use it for ts Razer is a good enough program, it wont give you a boost, or increase on fps, but i like to use it since usually im seeding or leaching something... It also automatically shuts down ym, skype and other stuff so i dont have to go about them one at a time

    Way too much hackers

    Just because you dont see it doesnt mean it aint there.... Besides, getting off the coast aint a solution to hacking.... Avoiding is different from preventing.

    Stable Branch: 0.44 Discussion

    ^^^^ this!!! Well put and well said. When you are already getting paid to do something, expectations are at a higher level. :) seriously, forgetting a whole city? Really? I would understand forgeting to put in the track suits or a shirt... But a whole city?? Well make it up to you next patch? Seriously... That would be ok if patches came in every week... But when it doesnt... Hehe anyways... Excuse my rant... I know i clicked the "i understand" button... But i just spent the better part of my weekend looking for a town that doesnt existand getting killed by hackers :) :) Hackers are like unicorns... Once you see one... You know you should run away... But you cant help but try and touch it XD Ps. Great game though.

    This is how dumb punching is in this game.

    I completely agree with you!! We are not made of glass, and knock outs arent that easy IRL, but being a trained fighter is way different than a survivor. A trained fighter tightens his abdomens before impact, he learns to loosen his neck to follow the blow... Have you ever been suckered punch in the stomach? I have, and it is way different than seeing the punch. Anyhow, a good way to solve this is lowering the chance of a KO when someone has his fist or weapons raised... To simulate someone trying to block the punch... Then "health" should also be a multiplier, a hungry and thirsty survivor ahould get a higher probability of getting KOed, than a "healthy" survivor. Then they should increase the KO percentage of bats, wrenches and such blunt melee weapons... Anyhow this is just my thoughts
  16. Watch your target, dont rush the shot, most people shoot as soon as someone sits still then miss coz the target hhmoved, understand what he is doing, wait for that perfect shot, if you dont get it, dont shoot, better not to shoot than miss. Always go for the kill shot on the first shot, if theyre running/doing the zigzag, shoot for the legs. This is just me, but never stay prone, go prone before taking the shot, its easier to spot a body proned under a tree from a distance. Keep your head on a swivel, everyone wants a free mosin with lrs. When youre sniping, have a pre determined killzone, have every inch of that kill zone ranged and measured, like building A is x distance and building B is x distance and use that as your reference, never shoot beyond your kill zone. And have your gun ranged to 200 and only adjust to a higher range before shooting. People have shot and missed me sneaking up on them because they have their mosins zeroed to 800. Shoot and relocate. Ive been killed so many times by people ive killed that respawned and went back to kill me or friends of those who i shot. Everything else is practice. :D

    Ghillie suit, rangefinder ?

    The only time a zombie will give away your position is when your inside a city running around or inside the airfield, these are the kill zones. A good sniper would never run into these places wearing his ghillie. Im all for ghillies, but give them a penalty... Like not being able to carry a back pack, vest, shirt... Only your pants... You wont be able to put a melee weapon on your back and your gun, you always have to run with your gun in your hands... Make it so that ghillies can be carried in your back pack.
  18. I came across someone at neaf, i was armed with a magnum and he had an m4, from the looks of it, it was your basic m4, anyhow, i saw him run to the north side of the western jail, i guess he saw me ran to the other end, i peaked out and there he was crouched waiting for me, i fired twice while he just unloaded, went back into cover to check, i didnt get hit, i peaked again and i saw him running away and bleeding, i fired 4 more shots before he got to the corner... Before i could finish him off, his sniper buddy fractured my arm and i had to retreat. Point is, the m4 is to weak, both dispersion and damage. The stock m4 should be as accurate as the mp m4, mp shouldnt increase accuracy, it should give other benefits.
  19. Ok, so i found another hacker today, post patch of .44 to stable on hardcore... I was a fresh spawn on NEAF when i saw a a mil-gear guy try to shoot me, i zig-zag and approached from the south, i caught him inside the eastern jail but couldnt get him as he tried to shoot me, thats twice now he shot me and missed, then suddenly another guy joined in and ordered us to put our guns down, and leave his airfield, the name on direct chat was "dean hall", now a common enemy makes allies so i closed the main door of the jail while my mil guy guarded the door and i tried peaking at the windows, now i only had an axe so we made a plan ill rush out and be the bait and my mil guy will shoot the guy while he tries to shoot me, the plan was ill ask a ques and while he types for a reply ill run out... And so we did... But as soon as i come out i see the guy on my right, all ruined or badly damaged clothes but fully modded m4 who then without hesitation jump inside the wall of the building upon seeing me, now i figured, a glitcher, even though the speed he jumped inside the wall was amazing, from my knowledge, you cant jump in a wall on the first try, so we rushed back in the building and closed the door, i then look inside the wall and told him i see him and he cant kill us coz i know his tricks, now as soon as i said that, the guy started floating around the wall, i figured desync, then he disappeared completely, i immediately looked at the main door and checked, doors closed, as i look up the stairs, there he is, pointing his gun at us, i immediately run left while my milguy tries to shoot him, the the guy proceeds to fly around the building while i try to axe him and another tries to shoot him. One thing i realized while all this is going on, the hacker cant teleport with his gun raised, everytime he teleports, his gun is lowered, so we stayed in that lower corridor below the stairs, after 15 mins or so, we finally surrendered, the damn hacker just teleports around the place and everytime i try to open the main door to run out, he is already outside, he just teleports between the wall, up stairs and outside... So we surrendered and asked to leave, the hacker then orders us to put our guns on our back, and axe and leave... As me and the milguy are leaving, the milguy tells me to follow him in the shed and then proceeds to drop me a magnum(after i asked several times if he had a pistol after we discovered the hacker outside) he then tells me to go to the hacker, beg for food and shoot him, i asked him to help me kill the hacker, and he said just go, anyways, as soon as i picked up the magnum, i shot him twice on the head, i took his gear, but as soon as i opened the shed door, the hacker was floating in front of the door then hosed me down. Lesson of the story: Dont shoot at fresh spawns, and miss, just because we met a hacker together, doesnt make us blood brothers, you tried to kill me twice, i may have died by a hacker, but atleast i still got to kill you :D

    Crossbow as a primary

    As long as the person youre shooting doesnt see you, then you have an advantage... I shot a guy at neaf and he didnt know i was there, less than 10m and it took two shots to the body... I was upstairs and he was down stairs, first shot he ran around and closed the main door, probably thought he got shot from the outside, he guarded the door like waiting for someone to enter, second shot killed him... The crossbow combined with the new silent footsteps makes a great assassin weapon... But you better have a back up gun...
  21. Sorry, i did this on my phone, im out with the wife

    Thermal sights. Yes or no?

    "Camping" KOS

    For all you know, he was there looting the place, spotted you coming in with an m4, if he didnt shoot you on sight, then hell be the one on here telling how someone just shot him walking out of a building... Being killed is part of the game...
